Abstract

The Armidale community has been involved with initiatives relating to the use of alcohol for the past fifteen years. Initial research involved school students and education programs designed to broaden their understanding in relation to alcohol use. The Armidale and New England Hospital pioneered the development of Dependency Resource Units. The Armidale community developed a community alcohol strategy after a workshop held in 1991. The strategy is now the responsibility of the Armidale City Council. There has been an attempt to integrate a wide range of initiatives under the umbrella of this council committee. These include programs relating to the needs of youth, the responsible serving of alcohol and responsible serving of alcohol and alcohol problems facing the Aboriginal community. Problems faced during the implementation phase of all these programs have been documented. A community development process has been maintained despite changing personnel. (A)
